“A HOP and a Zip in Serenity”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 June 2010

A group of 15 people, aged 10 to 70, enjoyed a wonderful, relaxing weekend a mile from Bryce Resort this summer. We stayed in the House Over the Pond (HOP), a custom-built home suspended over a fountain-fed pond, tucked in the woods near Mount Jackson, VA. Sitting on the back deck, watching the trees sway in the breeze, was fantastic. With six bedrooms on three floors, three baths, a modern kitchen, and multiple porch swings on the decks, we had plenty of space. With 1970s-era furniture and shag carpet, the place is comfortable and most convenient to so many activities in that area. We had a blast zip lining at Bryce Mountain (thanks Frank and Ryan), then fly fishing with Thad our superb trainer and guide. The House Over the Pond is rented by the same great folks who run the Sky Chalet Mountain Lodge just down the road from the HOP. Mona was most responsive and helpful. If you are into skiing or snowboarding in the winter, or hiking and swimming in the summer, then kicking back at night to play cards or watch satellite TV on a big screen, check out the HOP or the Chalet.

“Nice location but no plans to stay again.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 June 2010

PROS: Nice location, very comfortable bed. Ok kitchen and living area. Wireless internet. The window blinds in our room would not go down. Caretaker fixed soon after we called. We enjoyed the caretaker's dog visiting us during our 2-night stay. Free continental breakfast (we got 2 apples, 2 granola bars and 2 huge muffins), If you are looking for a quiet secluded place, this fits that criteria.

CONS: No TV. Very small bathroom. Unused buildings and other clutter on the property. Breakfast advertised as delivered between 0800-0830. We left at 0835 to get breakfast elsewhere. Breakfast was in the room upon our return.

If we visit this area again, we will stay elsewhere for better value for the price.

“Great place to get away from it all”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 April 2010

I came to Sky Chalet Mountain Lodge on my own with my dog and stayed in one of the Mountain Getaway rooms. The room was very cozy and clean with a very comfortable bed and the view is beautiful. The walls are thin so you can hear people walking around and talking in the adjacent rooms, but for all but one of my nights there the other people staying in the lodge were very quiet.

The lodge is in a very quiet area, but there are restaurants and tourist attractions nearby (within a 15 minute drive). I recommend Shrinemont and the Shenandoah Caverns.

It is a GREAT place to stay if you plan to bring your dog. There are several trails for going for walks as well as a couple of big fields where my dog had a blast running around. I recommend bringing a flashlight if you want to take your dog out at night as it gets really dark once the sun goes down and you won't be able to stray too far from the lodge without a flashlight.

All in all I had a lovely time and I would love to go back again!

“A sweet, romantic evening!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 November 2009

We stayed in the Mt. Paradise Room, which had an electric fireplace, a very nice jacuzzi, and no television. There are several rooms in the lodge, but the Paradise room is the only room on the top floor. The lodge is situated near nothing noisy or busy, and the views from the room were beautiful, Skyline Drive is also nearby. I would highly recommend this place as a romantic weekend getaway!

“Very relaxing, cozy, and absolutely a beautiful view.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 October 2009

My wife was looking on the internet for a nice place to travel to a couple of years ago. We thought we would give it a try, nothing ventured nothing gained. We enjoyed our stay so much last year we went back again this year. If your are looking for alot of activity, lots of people, and someone to wait on you hand and foot, -----this is the wrong place. Depending on how many people in you group, there are three floors, like a small 3 story house, for people to stay. We have had the second floor both times, and enjoy the real wood burning fire-place. Heating and air-conditioning, kitchen, living-room bedroom and deck.
Fire wood is cut and is about 100 ft away. There is a nice place to dine out about 5 min. away. Golf, zip-line, skiing, nearby. Should you want to shop or go to "town" it is about a half hour to Harrisonburg. Caverns, a winery nearby also.
We love it and will go back again.
